Titanfall PS4 release date KO’ed, but sequel likely

We have some bombshell news for those of you hoping to see a Titanfall PS4 release date in the not too distant future. Respawn Entertainment has finally set the story straight, confirming that Titanfall will remain a console exclusive on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One, permanently.

As most of you know, Titanfall is due out on the Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC in 2014. The game looks absolutely fantastic from a graphical point of view and naturally, many PS3 users are disappointed that they won’t have the chance to play the game at launch.

Rumors recently picked up suggesting that Titanfall was in fact a timed-exclusive meaning that it would eventually see a release on PS3 and PS4. However, we now have the confirmation in black and white that this actually isn’t the case and the game will remain exclusive to Microsoft.

Vince Zampella from Respawn Entertainment confirmed the news on Twitter, as you’ll see with these quotes below.

Always MS exclusive at launch, great partner and focus is good for a startup. EA made a deal for the rest, we only found out recently =(

With that said and done, we can however bring Sony fans cause for great optimism. A further tweet by Zampella reveals that they will definitely be making games for the PS4 and suggested that a sequel to Titanfall is possible and will be available on PS4.

He has stressed numerous times that the exclusivity is only for the first game, so it looks like any future games from the company will end up going multi-platform, which is obviously great for all neutral gamers out there.

Still though, will it feel a bit odd not being able to play Titanfall 1 on PS4, if Titanfall 2 becomes available? Give us your reaction to the news – you have to say that Microsoft has pulled off a major victory on this occasion, with their wallets.
